Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / T-Mobile / October 2004european band
Is their one band that is dominant in europe for gsm? 800 I think > Is their one band that is dominant in europe for gsm? > 800 I think Nooooooo! The first and primary European GSM band is "900 MHz", the secondary band is "1800 MHz". If you are buying a phone to use all over Europe you need at least "900 MHz" to get service everywhere. Having "1800" is a benefit as it gives you more options, but a phone that has only "1800" is inadequate for use all over Europe.  SignatureDonald Newcomb DRNewcomb (at) attglobal (dot) net thanks for the info, good to know. Helps me decide between the HTC 5600 or the Blackberry 7100t. Appreciate it.

It's 900. >> Is their one band that is dominant in europe for gsm? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - >Is their one band that is dominant in europe for gsm? Yes *there* is. The predominant band is 900 Mhz. The other band is 1800 Mhz. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
